Driving trust, discoverability and ROI in AI-generated content by Yana Lapitskaya
AI can generate content at scale, but scale (also known as AI slop) without discoverability, and control doesn’t convert. As search shifts toward AI-driven discovery (LLMs, AI summaries, GEO), many teams are producing more content that is less visible, less credible, and harder to govern. In this talk, I will explore what it takes to make AI-generated content perform in the real world, not just look & read well in a draft. You’ll learn: - Why trust signals (factuality, sources, clarity) are becoming a ranking and adoption factor in emerging Generative Engine Optimisation (GEO) - How discoverability is evolving as users move from links to answers and what content teams must optimise for next - Why brand voice drift is one of the biggest hidden risks in AI-scaled content (and how to fix it) The session will include a live demo of YAi, showcasing how AI-generated content can be: 1\. Evaluated and optimised for SEO and GEO performance 2\. Checked for factual accuracy and evidence 3\. Aligned to a consistent brand voice across teams and tools Built for startup founders, marketers and compliance professionals this talk bridges the gap between AI capability and business outcomes, helping teams turn AI content into something they can actually trust, find, and measure ROI from. The talk will also be of interest to AI practitioners and people curious about AI as AI search is affecting all of us.
Technology matters. But teams matter more by Emma Rees
Most AI rollouts fail not because of the technology, but because of what happens around it. Drawing on real data from organisations that got it wrong and right, Emma Rees walks through what transformation actually looks like from week one to the moment it sticks and the three things every leader overlooks before they start.
